We have an incredible opportunity to join our Balance Sheet Management team as a Capital Management Actuary

The role

In your role as Capital Management Actuary, you will join a team of highly skilled actuaries responsible for ensuring the Life Company and Group balance sheets are optimised to provide the capital and liquidity required to deliver the Group’s strategic objectives.

Reporting to the head of Financial Delivery & Commercial Strategy, you will play a fundamental role in matters such as co-ordinating and delivering management actions to optimise the balance sheet, making recommendations to the Board for capital and liquidity allocation decisions, providing expert advice to other areas of the business and supporting the production of the Solvency II balance sheet.

The role requires the ability to develop new skills quickly and work independently in a fast-paced environment.

What are we looking for?

  • A qualified actuary with a proven track record of meeting challenging objectives within designated timeframes.
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, including the ability to communicate technical actuarial concepts to a non-technical audience.
  • A good working knowledge of a life insurer’s Solvency II balance sheet.
  • Effective planning and prioritisation skills, to ensure that competing demands continue to be met within challenging timescales.
  • The ability to work self-sufficiently, with limited direct supervision.
  • A good team player who will make a positive contribution to the working environment and culture of the team.

We want to hire the whole version of you.

We are committed to ensuring that everyone feels accepted and welcome applicants from all backgrounds. If your experience looks different from what we’ve advertised and you believe that you can bring value to the role, we’d love to hear from you.

 If you require any adjustments to the recruitment process, please let us know so we can help you to be at your best.
